This was predicated on limiting the use of symbols in the table of permitted uses to <br /> only signifying review processes . Currently, the table utilizes symbols to identify development opportunities and <br /> constraints . These regulations and allowances are now being moved to the various impacted land use standards in <br /> Article 5 . <br /> ISO This is existing language from the definition of a 'Special Event' in Article 10 . After conferring with the County <br /> Attorney, it is more appropriate to have this limitation denoted within Article 5 . <br /> 151 Bold Red Underlined text denoting existing language from Section 5 . 4 . 3 being relocated . <br /> Orange County, North Carolina — Unified Development Ordinance Page 542 <br />
